The invention discloses a method and a device for automatically monitoring the
subgrade settlement. The device for automatically monitoring the
subgrade settlement is characterized by comprising a first measuring head P1 arranged on a first settlement monitoring point, a second measuring head P2 arranged on a second settlement monitoring point, ..., and an Nth measuring head PN arranged on an Nth settlement monitoring point, a pressure stabilizing device, a control terminal, a liquid filling port and an exhaust port; each measuring head comprises a
pressure sensor and a
data acquisition circuit and is packed in a mechanical structure, and the
pressure sensor and the
data acquisition circuit of each measuring head are electrically connected to be connected to the control terminal in a wired or
wireless manner; and the measuring heads are connected through a pipeline, the liquid filling port and the exhaust port are installed on the pipeline, and the pipeline is closed and full of liquid. According to the method and the device for automatically monitoring the
subgrade settlement, the closed liquid is used as a
pressure transmission medium, so that the settlement monitoring is slightly influenced by the environment, the monitoring accuracy is high, the effect on site operation is small, capacity resistant to sudden disasters is strong, the reliability is high, and the fully-automatic
continuous monitoring is realized. Therefore, the method and the device can be widely applied to automatic settlement monitoring in roadbed construction period and operating period of railways, highways and the like.
